Retro tech: The RCA CED Videodisc

A half hour video looking back at the RCA CED Videodisc system, thirty two years after it was discontinued in the UK.
Includes a brief history of video on a disc, a look at how CED works, repairing some common player faults and I finish by playing a 'new' disc on a 'new' machine.
